Description
I live at 1634 Genesee at the south end of Boyce across Rt 33. The sign on 33 that shows a left or right turn is needed has been sheared off 2 times since we bought the property in June of 09. My garage was hit once before. It sits 130' from Rt 33. I cant believe nobody has not been T-boned ! Time for STOP ahead signs on Boyce and a guard rail in front of my property as Colby has. Drain ditch,yard and my trees have been damaged again. Please help with this,it may cause us to move if this hazzard is not addressed,thank you John Kress

I am now convinced a body count is the goal for this section of highway ! Can nobody see a hazard here ?

NYSDOT does not monitor this website. I suggest you call them with your complaint at 343-0502, or try the Regional Traffic Operations Center at (585) 753-7780 (24 hours). I have passed along your concern, but they need to hear the complaint directly from you. Posting to this website may make you feel better in the short term, but it does not solve the problem--call them and complain to them! They will look at your problem, study it and give you an answer; but they can't fix what they don't know about. Again--They do not monitor this website.
Sincerely,
Tim Hens, P.E.

Hello Tim, NYSDOT ! Dont know about the signs they have to replace over and over ? Dont know they put a stop ahead sign at the North end of Boyce and not the South where the signs always need replaced ? A simple call from me could inform the DOT about what they do or dont do !
A Genesee County Highway Superintendent wouldnt have the contact to those who I would need to seek out and play the " Oh ! You need to call this number game " Seems a stop ahead sign or 20' of guard rail is quite a task....A tax payer,voter will take on the duty of making our roads more safe....Thanks !

I received a reply from NYSDOT today regarding a study they performed at your intersection based on my contact with them. The study indicated that only two accidents have occurred at this intersection. One was due a driver falling asleep and the other due to high speed. The NYSDOT indicated that neither accident would have been stopped by a "Stop Ahead" warning sign and therefore one will not be posted.
I would be glad to foward the letter to you if would like to provide an email. If you are not comfortable posting it online, feel free to call me at (585) 344-8508.

I wonder what would need to happen to my family or a anyone in the wrong place at the wrong time to warrant action to install a sign or a guard rail like the one that protects wetland at the North end Colby Rd.
This is Red Tape at its best ! I feel I'm going to become more well known with local Highway and DOT personal....John Kress
